St Kitts at Pelican Bay | Gulf-View High-Rise Condos in Naples, Florida

Imagine waking up high above the mangroves in Pelican Bay, watching the Gulf turn from soft pink to shimmering turquoise while the trams glide quietly toward the beach clubs below. That is everyday life at St Kitts at Pelican Bay, one of Crown Colony’s most in-demand high-rise addresses in 2025.

In this guide, I will walk you through the lifestyle, floor plans, amenities, leasing and pet rules, and what today’s buyers need to know about this Naples, Florida tower so you can decide whether St Kitts should be on your shortlist.

Big-Picture Appeal of St Kitts at Pelican Bay

• Central Crown Colony location along Pelican Bay Boulevard with quick access to the beach tram, Artis–Naples, Waterside Shops, and the Pelican Bay Commons.

• 22-story luxury high-rise with approximately 97 residences and classic Florida architecture overlooking the preserve and Gulf of Mexico. 

• Strong 2025 demand with six closings trading at an average discount of about 4 percent from list, reflecting a healthy but realistic market.

• Views that sell fast: once you clear the trees, renovated condos with wide Gulf and preserve views tend to move quickly when priced correctly. 

• Highly livable floor plans that work beautifully as a primary home, seasonal residence, or “lock-and-leave” second home.

• Full Pelican Bay lifestyle including private beach clubs, beachfront dining, tennis, pickleball, fitness, walking paths, and an active year-round social calendar. 

The Building: Classic High-Rise Living in Crown Colony

St Kitts sits within the gated Crown Colony enclave in central Pelican Bay at 6585 Nicholas Boulevard in Naples, Florida. Built in 1992, this 22-story tower offers approximately 97 residences, most with long sweeping views over the Pelican Bay preserve toward the Gulf of Mexico. 

The architecture is timeless coastal Florida, with a symmetrical façade, arched detailing at the top of the building, and a gracious porte cochère entry that sets a resortlike tone the moment you arrive. Recent renovations to the common areas and amenities have given the tower a lighter, more sophisticated feel that today’s buyers are looking for. 

Residences & Floor Plans

St Kitts offers a mix of two and three-bedroom floor plans plus larger penthouse residences. Typical interior living areas begin around 1,341 square feet and extend to over 2,200 square feet, with a rare five-bedroom-plus-den penthouse at the top of the stack. 

• Entry-level plans in the “02” and “03” stacks are efficient two-bedroom layouts of approximately 1,341 square feet – ideal for a lock-and-leave second home. 

• Corner “04” and “05” stacks feel more like sky-homes, with additional windows and sweeping corner views.

• The “01” stack typically offers the most square footage, making it a favorite for buyers who want a bit more elbow room. 

Because the views are so compelling, renovated condos in St Kitts tend to sell quickly when they hit the market. Updated kitchens, modern flooring, impact glass, and opened-up great room layouts are highly sought after by today’s Naples buyers, who want a fresh, move-in-ready home that matches the views outside.

Views & Orientation

One of the reasons St Kitts is so loved is the way it sits above the Pelican Bay preserve. Once you are above the tree line, you enjoy a layered view of mangroves, beach and shimmering Gulf water.

• Water views generally begin around the fifth floor and become more dramatic with each higher level. 

• Many residences capture long west-facing sunset views, with the sun sinking directly into the Gulf in season.

• Lower floors often enjoy serene treetop and resort-style pool scenes, which some buyers prefer for a more intimate, grounded feel.

If you love to watch the sky change all afternoon and evening, St Kitts should be on your radar.

Amenities at St Kitts

Within Crown Colony, St Kitts delivers a full menu of on-site amenities that make everyday life feel like a boutique resort: 

• Sunny resort-style pool and spa with good sun exposure

• Grilling area and outdoor gathering space for casual dinners with friends

• Beautiful social room for events and building gatherings

• Well-equipped fitness center

• Library and billiards room

• Two guest suites you can reserve for visiting friends and family

Layer these with Pelican Bay’s private beach clubs, fitness and wellness center, dining, tennis, pickleball, and miles of walking paths, and you have a turnkey Naples lifestyle without ever leaving the neighborhood. 

Beach Access & Pelican Bay Lifestyle

From St Kitts, owners access the Pelican Bay beach berm by walking next door past Cap Ferrat to the tram station. The tram takes you directly to the Marker 36 Beach Club, where you can enjoy toes-in-the-sand dining, beach chairs and umbrellas, and a relaxed, social atmosphere. 

Prefer the South Beach Club vibe? A short stroll to Pelican Bay Commons connects you with the south tram system and another private members-only beach club with its own personality and dining scene. 

In addition, you are just minutes to: 

• Waterside Shops for luxury shopping and chic open-air dining

• Artis–Naples and the Baker Museum for concerts, performances and exhibitions

• The Village Shops on Venetian Bay, Fifth Avenue South, and Mercato just a short drive away

For owners who want a true Naples beach-to-city lifestyle, St Kitts checks a lot of boxes.

Leasing & Pet Policies

For many buyers, leasing and pet rules are a crucial part of the decision.

Most sources agree that St Kitts allows multiple leases per year with a 90-day minimum, which creates some flexibility for owners who travel or want to offset carrying costs, while still maintaining a predominantly residential feel in the building. 

Pet rules are pleasantly reasonable for a high-rise:

• Owners, guests and visitors may generally keep up to two small domesticated pets (dogs or cats) with size and weight limits, plus a small number of caged birds and tropical fish, subject to association rules. 

As always, it is important to review the most current condominium documents during your due-diligence period, as associations do occasionally update their rules.

2025 Market Snapshot: St Kitts “On Fire” Compared to rest of Condo Market

So far in 2025, St Kitts has been one of the busiest towers in Pelican Bay, with six closings and an average discount of approximately four percent from asking price. That tells you several things:

• Buyers are enthusiastic and willing to move quickly for the right condo.

• Sellers are realistic and deals are still being made without the extreme bidding wars we saw in past years.

• Pricing and presentation matter. Renovated condos with compelling views and smart pricing are the first to sell.

If you are considering listing your St Kitts condo, this is exactly the type of data I use in my pricing strategy and negotiation plan.

Who St Kitts at Pelican Bay Is Perfect For

St Kitts is an excellent fit if you:

• Want a lock-and-leave beach lifestyle in Naples without the maintenance of a single-family home

• Love Gulf and preserve views and want that feeling of being up in the clouds

• Appreciate a quiet, boutique high-rise rather than an enormous resort complex

• Value easy beach access and all of Pelican Bay’s amenities

• May want some leasing flexibility for part of the year

• Prefer a central location that makes it simple to head to Waterside Shops, Mercato, Venetian Village, Old Naples and coastal golf clubs

Smart Buyer Notes

A few strategic considerations for St Kitts buyers and sellers:

• Floor height matters: if wide Gulf views are a priority, focus on higher levels and stacks with the best western exposure.

• Renovations pay off: buyers are paying a premium for updated floor plans, newer kitchens and baths, impact glass and light, neutral finishes.

• Consider future rental needs: even if you plan to use your condo full time today, the ability to lease with 90-day minimums can be an important part of your long-term exit strategy. 

• Review association documents up front to confirm the most current pet and leasing rules, capital projects and reserves.

• Work with a Pelican Bay specialist who knows the nuances between Crown Colony towers like St Kitts, Cap Ferrat and St Marissa and can help you compare floor plans, amenities, and recent sales.
